Chin Jao

“Don Chin Jao” · alive · boss of the Chin Jao Family

Profile

“Don Chin Jao,” legendary boss of the Chin Jao Family (the Kano Kingdom Gang) of Kano, the flower kingdom — a revered old underworld legend in attendance at the Corrida Coliseum. Running gag: he flies into a violent rage whenever anyone thanks him (“Don’t ever thank me again!!! Up yours!!!”).

Arc-by-arc updates

Dressrosa — healed and rallying (Ch. 787)

• “Don Chin Jao” among the gladiators restored by Mansherry’s healing; named on-page (p. 15) joining the push to the central plateau.

Dressrosa — passes the Hasshoken to Sai (Ch. 771)

• His old ailment, flared up “since my fight with Straw Hat,” dulls his fighting (p. 15). When Sai’s awakened foot breaks his restored drill-head, he rejoices that Sai’s “true power has finally awakened,” christens Sai’s leg “Drill Dragon Nail,” declares the Hasshoken secret passed on, and nullifies Sai’s betrothal to Ooklicia: “Now the Happosui is truly yours!!!” (pp. 13–15).
• Floored by Lao G’s “Seal of G” (“L…Lao G?!! Gramps!!!”), p. 15.

Dressrosa — King’s-Plateau climb (Ch. 753)

• Among the rallying gladiators (Sai calls for him — “Grandpa!!”); the group unites to push Luffy up (pp. 7, 15).

Dressrosa — climbing for the third step (Ch. 752)

• “Chinjao’s heading for the third step!!” (p. 11) in the gladiators’ race up the plateau to lift Luffy.

Dressrosa — Drillhead on Pica (Ch. 749)

• Drives his restored drill-head into Pica’s stone arm — “Nothing can withstand my drillhead!!!” (p. 2) — one of the opening blows in the plateau assault (the stone regenerates regardless).

Dressrosa — the gladiator pledge; charges Pica (Ch. 748)

• Leads the Happo Army to Luffy, formally renounces his three-generation grudge against Garp’s bloodline (p.9). See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp.
• Helps reveal the family’s true purpose — to destroy Doflamingo’s dark business (p.9). See The Chin Jao Familys Hidden Reason For Entering The Colosseum.
• Drives a Hasshoken Secret Art “Drill Dragon Nail” into Pica’s giant stone arm (pp.16–17).

Dressrosa (Ch. 729) — referenced

• Listed among the colosseum combatants already fallen — “Don Chin Jao in Block C” (p. 9).

Dressrosa — the Corrida Colosseum (Ch. 706)

• Paraded in the Block C roster montage (“Don Chin Jao,” p. 10) — drill-shaped head; old but formidable.

Dressrosa — Competitor Viewing Section (Ch. 707) — inferred; unnamed on-page

• (Inference — the aged gladiator on p. 17 is not named; attribution rests on the 0704 roster + his hulking-old-gladiator depiction.) An ancient, immensely powerful gladiator who knew Garp greets Luffy (“Lucy”), learns he is Garp’s grandson, and reveals Garp “nearly killed me years ago” — declaring his hatred “would extend to at least three generations” (p. 17), a standing grudge that will fall on Luffy. See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp. (Identity confirmed Ch. 719 — named on-page.)

Dressrosa — Corrida Colosseum (Ch. 708)

• Named on-page at last — “Don Chin Jao” (p. 3); confirms he is the aged gladiator who greeted Luffy with the Garp grudge in Ch. 707. (Resolves the 0707 inferred-attribution hedge — his identity is no longer an inference.)
• Turns on Luffy (“Lucy”) as Garp’s grandson: Garp “was the Devil himself to pirates,” nearly killed Chin Jao decades ago, and his hatred reaches three generations — he names Luffy’s father Dragon and says, had he known of him sooner, “I could have prevented you from ever being born!!!” (pp. 2–3).
• Power: his drill-skull withstands Cavendish’s blade Durandal unpierced (p. 5); one head-blow swats both Cavendish and Lucy aside (p. 6); the crowd recalls the legend that he “split a continent of ice in half with a head-butt” (p. 7). In his prime he carried a bounty over half a billion (p. 4).
• Signature technique “King Punch” first named on-page (p. 11) — anticipated by his grandsons Sai & Boo for the Block C match: “…the KING PUNCH’ll take care of ‘em…” Named-not-shown this chapter (not actually thrown). Records the first-naming of Chin Jao’s signature technique.
• Restrained by his grandsons Sai and Boo to avoid disqualification; agrees to settle the score inside the Block C match (pp. 8–9). See The Chin Jao Familys Hidden Reason For Entering The Colosseum.

Dressrosa — Corrida Colosseum, Block C (Ch. 715) — Conqueror’s Haki; the grudge falls on Luffy

• Named on-page as the retired 12th chief of the Happo Navy (the Happosui Army gangsters of Kano); a legendary pirate “once worth five hundred million berries” in his prime (p. 4).
• Wields the Haki of the Supreme King (Conqueror’s Haki) on-page (p. 10) — single-handedly floors his grandsons Sai and Boo and the field of Block C, dismissing them as amateurs (“Come back when you’ve learned a little, amateurs!!!”, pp. 7–9).
• On the bounty hunter Jean Ango stripping “Lucy’s” helmet and exposing the gladiator as Luffy, Chin Jao abandons his fight and breaks into a mad charge at Luffy — “Watch this, Garr… see what happens to your grandson!!!” (p. 18) — his standing grudge against Garp redirected onto the grandson. See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp.

Dressrosa — the Corrida Colosseum, Block C (Ch. 716) — the Garp grudge itemized; a Conqueror’s-Haki collision

• Reveals the grudge in full: Garp stole from him “an uncountable fortune,” “my strength” and “the memories of my youth”; he wants Garp to “live and know the misery of loss,” and confirms “Lucy” (Luffy) is Garp’s grandson (pp. 8–9). See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp.
• Now a bounty hunter hunting Impel Down’s covered-up Level 6 escapees by the dozen — “trying to complete the entire set” — naming Buggy, Jinbei, Crocodile, Ivankov and Shiryu of the Rain (pp. 9–10).
• Conqueror’s Haki user: his drill-head charge collides with Luffy’s fist in “a collision of Supreme King Haki” (p. 18), flattening most of Block C; also KOs Jean “the Bandit” Ango with one headbutt (p. 12). See Haki.

Dressrosa — Block C finale (Ch. 717) — names himself “Chin Jao the Drill”; the Garp grudge breaks open

• The cloaked Conqueror’s-Haki finalist is confirmed to be Chin Jao; his clash of wills with “Lucy” (Luffy) knocks out every other Block C fighter, leaving only the two of them standing (p. 3).
• Names himself “Chin Jao the Drill” (p. 6) and charges Luffy with his drill-head.
• Knows Rayleigh and is stunned he is still alive (“Rayleigh!! So he’s still alive…”, p. 4) — confirming Chin Jao as a Garp/Roger-era contemporary; he recognizes Luffy’s Haki and asks “Who taught you the ways of that Haki?!”
• Breaks down weeping over a stolen treasure and “the memories of my youth” that Garp took, screaming “What did Garp do to me?!!” (pp. 5–6) before charging Luffy; his grandsons Sai and Boo cheer him on, having meant to send him to the finals. See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp.

Dressrosa — the Corrida Colosseum, Block C final (Ch. 719) — named + backstory confirmed

• Fights “Lucy” (Luffy) in the Block C final. Derides the new generation, naming Blackbeard Teech the only Worst-Generation pirate with “true potential” and mocking Rayleigh’s choice of Luffy (pp. 3–4).
• Backstory: as the 12th Chief of the Happosui Army 30 years ago, his head was a drill that could pierce any material; it alone could open a vault of centuries of his people’s treasure frozen inside the Crystal Ice Sheet (pp. 6–7).
• Garp punched his drill head flat 30 years ago, permanently sealing the vault. Chin Jao lost “my strength, my fortune and my will to go on,” quit pirating, and cursed Garp “to your grandson’s generation” (pp. 8–12) — the source of his hatred for Luffy. See An Old Gladiators Three-Generation Grudge Against Garp (payoff).
• Uses a Hasshoken Secret Art (“Non-Drill Dragon… Thor”); Luffy’s Gear Third Elephant Gun strikes his flattened head and pops it back into its original drill point (“Non-Nail”), undoing Garp’s damage (pp. 13–15). See Luffy Unknowingly Restores Chin Jaos Drill Head Undoing Garps Curse.
• Knocked out of bounds into the arena water hazard; loses the match (pp. 16–17).

Dressrosa — the Corrida Colosseum (Ch. 720) — offers the Happo Navy to Luffy

• His grandsons announce he wants to thank Luffy; “even my hatred for Garp has vanished” (p. 8).
• Offers to place his grandsons’ Happo Navy under Luffy’s command as thanks “for returning the shape of my head,” addressing Luffy as “grandson of Garp” (p. 9). Seeds Colosseum Fighters Pledge To Luffy Grand Fleet Seed.

Dressrosa — dumped underground (Ch. 725)

• Among the tournament losers dropped into the underground chamber beneath the Corrida Colosseum; vows he “might just need to curse Doflamingo… to his grandson’s generation!!!” (p. 17).
